Old Fertilizer watch fob.....circa 1908

[Graysondigger]

This is only the 2nd watch fob I've found and I can't find another one like it on the internet. The company appears in agricultural fertilizer periodicals from 1908 through 1910.
Oh yeah, the first fob I found was for Hires rootbeer. HH!

Would love to dig any kind of fob, and yours is really cool! At first I wondered why your fob has "ears" at the top, then realized it depicts a fertilizer bag, lol. HAVE FUN! Andi

I found the company (Chickamauga Fertilizer Works, Atlanta) mentioned in a 1909 Dept. of Agriculture Bulletin. Very cool find !http://books.google.com/books?id=a6...nepage&q=chickamauga fertilizer works&f=false

Yep I saw that too. Did you notice Chickamauga is mis-spelled on the fob?
